This is probably a politics question, but I think it's more interesting as a poll sort of jumping off point.
Mitt Romney is going after Barak Obama for suggesting that

he considers sex education for kindergartners appropriate if it is tailored to their age level. He has said that if a kindergartner asks a question such as where babies come from, they should be told accurate information. Obama also said warning young people about inappropriate touching is an example of the type of sex education he supports, adding that he was criticized for his position on sex education during his 2004 U.S. Senate campaign as well.

I think I found out about the whole penis+vagina=baby thing when I was in first or second grade. I learned from my best friend, who got her intel from her older brother. I dutifully passed on all that I knew to my fascinated younger siblings, using barbie dolls for demonstration.
My parents found out about our new favorite subject and corrected us on some of the mechanics, but more or less I, my best friend, and her brother had it right.
The Barbies didn't. Though they did have a lot of sex from that point forward using their less than adequate equipment.
I don't think it was too soon, or that I developed an unnaturally early interest in sex, or that I was too stupid to realize that there was a remarkable correlation between my mom's sudden lack of a belly and (yet another) sibling.
Are Republican children that stupid? Sorry, sorry, couldn't help it....what I meant to ask is when did ya'll learn about sex?
